Lacná kniha Viking Art (-50%)
This book distils a lifetime's study of Viking art. Written by a leading authority, it introduces all the intricate and beautiful art styles of the Viking age. It ranges in time from the first major Viking expeditions overseas around AD 800 to the general establishment of Christianity in Scandinavia some 300 years later. The opening chapter introduces the geographical and historical background to Viking culture; thematic chapters then describe and illustrate the six main Viking art styles, showing how they emerged from and interacted with one another. Delicate metalwork, elaborate wood-carvings and the famous Gotland picture-stones are all discussed. Viking art ranges in scale from ship burials to decorated weapons and finely crafted jewelry; all feature here, alongside Viking architecture and archaeological traces left by Vikings across continental Europe and beyond. The final chapter examines Viking art in relation to pagan mythology, the conversion to Christianity, and the Viking legacy for later artistic movements. First published in 2013 and now revised and updated throughout, this volume is a modern classic that serves as a definitive guide for all those interested in the vibrant artistic culture of this fascinating period in European history.

TEXTile Manifestoes
TEXTile Manifestoes je mezioborová antologie, která spřádá nejrůznější otázky spojené s textilním uměním, módou, textualitou a vetkává je do širších politických, sociologických, filosofických a umělecko-historických souvislostí, čímž překračuje rámec jejich vlastní textury. Propojením triadického celku TEXTu – TEXTilu – TEXTury se TEXTile Manifestoes snaží reflektovat, kreativně přetvářet, kriticky promýšlet, dekonstruovat a dekolonializovat žánrovou ambivalenci manifestu jakožto převážně mužské formy modernity, která autoritářsky usiluje o zcela odlišnou budoucnost. Antologie vychází ze strukturálního a metaforického sepjetí textu a textilu, aby se pokusila jiným způsobem promyslet politické a etické otázky současného světa, který se tak zoufale snaží hledat jistoty a zřetelný program moderního manifestu, a to aniž by se uchýlil k těm nejhorším formám totality. Původní projekt „TEXTile Manifestoes“ vznikl z mezioborové spolupráce několika ateliérů na Vysoké škole uměleckoprůmyslové v Praze. Studentky a studenti ateliérů designu oděvu a obuvi, grafického designu a vizuální komunikace, tvorby písma a typografie a fotografie II byli osloveni, aby společně propletli textil a diskurz jakožto vlastní manifesty kombinující módní kolekce a palčivé otázky současného světa, jako je všudypřítomný dohled a kontrola, umělá inteligence, nebo virtuální realita, případně otázky osobnější týkající se identity, paměti a (duševního) zdraví. Studentské práce následně doplnily a (re)kontextualizovaly zahraniční a tuzemské příspěvky, jejichž rozsah sahá od Andských textilních studií, neuropsychoanalýzy, literární a umělecké kritiky, až po estetiku a muzikologii. Do antologie svými texty přispěli: Kyle Allan, Jayson Althofer, Erik Annerborn, Luciana Benetti Marques Valio, Shelley Burian, Subhradeep Chatterjee, Ingrid Cogne, Arthur Crucq, Evelyn Echle, Pasquale Fameli, Tereza Jiroutová Kynčlová, Paris Lavidis, Elisabeth Längle, Pavel Liška, Veronica Montanino, Robin R. Mudry, Pierluca Nardoni, Anna Maria Panzera, Anika Reineke, I. A. Roland-Rodríguez a Anne Röhl. Publikace vychází pouze v anglické jazykové verzi.
Annotation in English:
The TEXTile Manifestoes is an interdisciplinary anthology that assembles and interweaves questions related to textile art, fashion and textuality into broader political, sociological, philosophical, art history and historical frameworks thereby expanding their range of textural interconnections. This anthology departs from the genre-related ambivalence of the manifesto as a modern male form of authoritatively demanding radically different futures by using the manifesto to connect with the triadic complex of TEXT – TEXTile – TEXTure in order to reflect, refashion and redefine it in creative, critical, deconstructive and decolonial ways. Departing from the structural and metaphorical contiguity of texts and textiles, TEXTile Manifestoes aims to rethink the political and ethical in a world desperately seeking the certainties and clear programmes of modern manifestoes without returning to the worst forms of historical totality. The original project “TEXTile Manifestoes” emerged out of a cross-disciplinary collaboration between several studios at the Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design in Prague. Students from the Studios of Fashion and Footwear Design, Graphic Design, Visual Communication and Type Design as well as Photography II worked together to weave textiles and discourses alike to design their manifestoes by combining fashion collections with burning contemporary issues such as mass surveillance, artifical intelligence or virtual reality but also to more private struggles of identity, memory and (mental) health. The students’ works were later complemented by and (re)contextualised with international contributions ranging from ancient Andean textile studies to neuropsychoanalysis or from literary and art criticism to aesthetics and musicology. With texts by Kyle Allan, Jayson Althofer, Erik Annerbo

Greek Myths
The Greek myths are timeless classics, whose scenes and figures have captivated us since ancient times. The gods and heroes of these legends hold up a mirror to the human condition, embodying universal characteristics and truths - whether it be the courage of Perseus, the greed of Midas, the vaulting ambition of Icarus, the vengeance of Medea, or the hubris of Niobe. These traits are the basis for immortal dramas and rich narratives, as profound as they are entertaining, which form the bedrock of our culture and literature today and remain relevant and fascinating for all readers, young and old alike.
This edition contains 47 tales based on the most famous episodes in Greek mythology, from Prometheus, the Argonauts, and Theseus to the Trojan War and Homer's Odyssey. The individual texts are selected from the seminal work Sagen des klassischen Altertums (Legends of Classical Antiquity) by Gustav Schwab (1792-1850), and strikingly illustrated by 29 artists, among them outstanding representatives of the Golden Age of Book Illustration and the Arts and Crafts Movement, including Walter Crane (1845-1915), Arthur Rackham (1867-1939), William Russell Flint (1880-1969), and Virginia Frances Sterrett (1900-1930).
These illustrations are complemented by scene-setting vignettes for each story and a genealogical tree of Greek gods and goddesses by Clifford Harper, commissioned especially for this volume. Placing the tales in context, the book contains a historical introduction by Dr. Michael Siebler and is rounded off with biographies of all featured artists as well as an extensive glossary of ancient Greece's most famous protagonists. The heroism, tragedy, and theater of Greek mythology glimmer through each tale in this lavishly illustrated edition, awakening the gods and heroes to new life.
Lacná kniha Book of the Dead (-70%)
The Book of the Dead is the morgue log, the ledger in which all cases are entered by hand. For Kay Scarpetta, however, it is about to have a new meaning. Fresh from her bruising battle with a psychopath in Florida, Scarpetta decides its time for a c
hange of pace. Moving to the historic city of Charleston, South Carolina, she opens a unique private forensic pathology practice, one in which she and her colleagues offer expert crime scene investigation and autopsies to communities lacking local ac
cess to competent death investigation and modern technology. It seems like an ideal situation, until the murders and other violent deaths begin. A woman is ritualistically murdered in her multi-million-dollar beach home. The body of an abused young b
oy is found dumped in a desolate marsh. A sixteen-year-old tennis star is found nude and mutilated near Piazza Navona in Rome. Scarpetta has dealt with many brutal and unusual crimes before, but never a string of them as baffling, or as terrifying, a
s the ones before her now. Before she is through, that book of the dead will contain many names - and the pen may be poised to write her own.Upozornenie: Vzhľadom na častejšie obmeny vydaní tejto knihy v zahraničí, kus, ktorý vám zašleme, nemusí mať

Blechtrommel
Mit dem Erscheinen der ›Blechtrommel‹ 1959 gewann der deutsche Nachkriegsroman Anschluß an die Weltliteratur und Oskar der Trommler seinen festen Platz in der modernen Mythologie. Anfang der 50er Jahre trommelt und schreibt in einer Heil- und Pflegeanstalt ein Buckliger des Jahrgangs 1924 die Geschichte seines Lebens und seiner Familie vom Begin des Jahrhunderts bis in das Deutschland Adenauers. Oskar Matzerath hat alles gesehen und gehört, nichts ist ihm entgangen, denn er war ein hellhöriger Säugling, dessen geistige Entwicklung bereits bei der Geburt abgeschlossen war. Der Außenseiter, der Wirklichkeit ertrommeln und Glas zersingen kann, erweist sich dabei als der einzige Gesunde in einer Welt des Scheins, der Lüge und des Verbrechens. Am Ende seiner phantastischen Autobiographie, die Oskar vom Vorkriegs-Danzig bis ins Düsseldorf der Nachkriegszeit führt, »entdeckt man, daß man über Deutschland und Mitteleuropa – sowohl in der Zeit des Völkermordes als auch im Biedermeier der Restauration – mehr weiß als je zuvor«.

Delphi Complete Works of Nicolas Poussin (Illustrated)
The seventeenth century painter Nicolas Poussin founded the French Classical tradition, working the majority of his career in Rome. He specialised in history paintings, depicting scenes from the Bible, ancient history, and mythology, which are notable for their narrative clarity and dramatic force. Poussin was a man of contrasts; sensual, yet austere and intellectual, prizing reason, order and dispassion above all else. His art is a reconciliation and synthesis of these traits, setting an example of what would become the standard for a long tradition of academic art, continuing until the end of the nineteenth century. His influence was far-reaching, winning the approval of the Neoclassical masters, the Post-Impressionists and even modernists like Pablo Picasso. Delphi’s Masters of Art Series presents the world’s first digital e-Art books, allowing readers to explore the works of great artists in comprehensive detail. This volume presents Poussin’s complete paintings in beautiful detail, with concise introductions, hundreds of high quality images and the usual Delphi bonus material.

Goddesses
Joseph Campbell brought mythology to a mass audience. His bestselling books, including The Power of Myth and The Hero with a Thousand Faces, are the rare blockbusters that are also scholarly classics.
While Campbell's work reached wide and deep as he covered the world's great mythological traditions, he never wrote a book on goddesses in world mythology. He did, however, have much to say on the subject. Between 1972 and 1986 he gave over twenty lectures and workshops on goddesses, exploring the figures, functions, symbols, and themes of the feminine divine, following them through their transformations across cultures and epochs.
In this provocative volume, editor Safron Rossi?a goddess studies scholar, professor of mythology, and curator of collections at Opus Archives, which holds the Joseph Campbell archival manuscript collection and personal library?collects these lectures for the first time. In them, Campbell traces the evolution of the feminine divine from one Great Goddess to many, from Neolithic Old Europe to the Renaissance. He sheds new light on classical motifs and reveals how the feminine divine symbolizes the archetypal energies of transformation, initiation, and inspiration.

The best infographics from the National Geographic archives
Back in the days when the information age was a distant dream and the world a more mysterious place, National Geographic began its mission to reveal the wonders of history, popular science, and culture to eager audiences around the globe. Since that 1888 launch, the world has changed; empires have risen and crumbled and a galaxy of information is today only the click of a mouse away. But National Geographic endures; its calm, authoritative voice is respected as ever amid the surfeit of data in our daily lives.
In this new anthology, TASCHEN and National Geographic gather the magazine’s best infographics of the past 128 years. Through seven sections–History, The Planet, Being Human, Animal World, World of Plants, Science and Technology, and Space–we encounter the rise and fall of the Roman Empire, the mysterious origins of the Easter Island statues, Cleopatra’s Alexandria and a history of Hawaiian surfboarding, all distilled in expert, accessible graphic form. We discover how our genetic patterns have been pieced together over the years or how hip-hop emerged as a cultural heavyweight; we get to grips with global warming, and explore our ever-expanding study of an ever-expanding universe.
